Until now there hasn’t been any realistic feeling turbulence in any flight simulator (that is probably why people are complaining because people are not used to it). But in real life in turbulent conditions you constantly have to use the aileron to compensate, it’s actually really hard to control a …

Really like the gusts. If they are reduced or removed then I’ll know that this is truly a game and that XP-12 is our only hope. What is missing in MSFS are real levels of turbulence in clouds. I should not be able to happily cruise through a nasty CB and should be thinking about where the toilet …

The poll is really tricky many voters really read only the first words “I like it“and not all of it just like my case so that’s why are more votes on the first one this should be done again I think, the turbulence is realistic and this is good, it would be really bad if they decide to remove it

[image] Biggles3601: It’s not that the air is starting and stopping Well, that´s a gust indeed. What you explain is a different thing. Is an airplane travelling into different wind components. In game gusts are just fast changing speed winds and nothing else than that is simulated. Aerodynami…

Are you sure about that “Turbulence spot on” Captain ??? Is it feeling or facts? As a matter of fact just give a try here right now at BIKF, I just tested at BIKF and you’ll see that you can still fly your C172 through CB, dark cells and storms: not a single convective in CB, no up-downdraft, no d…

[image] Fornax4188: But they are from stationary anemometres. What about an airplane that moves at 200kts - 10 times faster than the wind itself, so the gusts will be 10times more frequent…? Weather data is basically measured at stationary stations, yes, because it´s the cheapest way to do i…

[image] Realistic Dangerous Weather - Physics Simulation Wishlist Some of the things like gusts were in the sim, got disabled and now gonna come back maybe. Up and down drafts also were in the sim much stronger and got limited, now reworked with thermals for an…

Depends on the severity of that CB and the stage it’s in. There are pilots who didn’t survive flying through one. There was a guy years ago who had his airframe in his twin ripped in parts. I’d love to see airframe stress/damage flying through them.

:clap::clap::clap: Exactly my feelings too! Flew through hurricane Fiona in the sim: 70-80kts winds - no problem in my C414, no turbulence whatsoever - wings level-glued to horizon all the time, no up-/downdrafts - stayed between 4999-5001ft all the time… Gusts only slide the plane in the x-y-pl…

Thanks Asobo, this turbulence is absolutely spot on!
